Welcome to my thread for 5th edition Dungeons & Dragons. This will be a repository for all my D&D stuff from 2nd Edition, which is the system i played the most when I was still gaming on a table. The Index will include, races, magic items, classes, and monsters appropriate to the worlds I got trapped in my head. This thread should probably be in settings, oops !

Kingdoms of Karmyth
Karmyth is a low fantasy campaign world, magic is slightly less common in this world as can be seen in many of the posts on this thread. Races don't live so long, feats do not exist in full. The biggest change to concept of this world is that lower levels mean more. And reaching level 13 or higher is for epic and legendary individuals.

Realms of Magnor
The world of Magnor is a very high magic setting, that has more possibilities to it. Races are more varied and distinct from each other. Magic is extremely common in this world, and dealing with celestial and demonic threats are much more common.

Dwarf
Dwarves are the most technically inclined of the races, as the saying goes "Dwarves have minds of grinding gears and metal". Always trying to improve on things, however all of this engineering genius they lack in the magical departments. Save in the arts of Rune Magic, allowing them to make magical artifacts and raw Elemental forces. And mages are very rare to see in dwarf fortresses. Dwarves are generally though are solitary species, and prefer to keep their noses out of the business of other races. However despite this, they enjoy an alliance with humans and seem to work well together. Dwarves in general tend to live in mountainous are hill like terrain, and build their great halls and fortresses into the very earth itself. They are also broken up into Clans, for Dwarves make bonds of friendship and loyalty that seems extreme to others.

Starting Age/Lifespan: Most Dwarves reach the age of maturity by the time they are 30 years of age. Dwarves are a sturdy long lived folk and can generally live almost three times longer than most humans can (140 to 200 years of age).

Elves
Elves are perhaps the most magically inclined of all the races. And in general are a creative, and artistic people. And this can be seen in just about everything that they create. Elves are generally thought of as a prideful and boastful people, and generally turn their noses down on more simple people, such as dwarfs. However despite this they also enjoy an alliance with humans, and in some cases dwarfs. But it becomes obvious that elves and dwarfs have some kind of friction between themselves. Elves generally live in heavily forested areas, one of which is the forest of Vaelenwood where the High elves reside. And Riverwood, where the wood elves reside. They live in not only the tree's but anything, that they can fashion from the world around them. As long as it does not disrupt the harmony of nature.

There is a certain level of tolerance and disdain that the High elves have for their wood Elf kin, who they see as more simple and wild in their eyes. But it is with wood elves that humans often deal with the most, being far more agreeable with them.

Starting Age/Life Span: Most elves reach the age of maturity by the time they are 50 years of age. Elves are a gentle but long lived race, and can live up to 5 times longer than most humans could. (200-300 years of age) Description: Elves range in height from 5'4" to 6'6" in height. Skin tone can be pale, fair, tanned, or even a dusky olive. What is true of all the elven races is their grace and beauty which they all share. Elves can have a variety of eye and hair colors, though black, silver, gold, and red are more common for hair tones. While greens and blues, are most common for eye colors. While both species of elves possess pointed ears, wood elves have darker complexions with ears that point away from the face almost vertically. While high elven ears point upwards horizontally.Native Languages: Elves speak VaelenReligious Beliefs: Elves worship many gods, Feren (god of woods and animals), Galliel (Goddess of dance and wine), Amdar (Moon god, lord of illusions and mysteries),

Dark Elves.
The dark elves are a sub-race of elves that live in great kingdoms underground or in mountains. They have fair pale skin, and often have dark hair. Their eyes however are an intense pale color of blue or green. They are a fair race, with a decadent culture. They are adept in the arts of cunning and manipulate, and often make skilled assassins or mediators. Ability Score bonus. Your charisma score is increased by 1. Elf weapon training. You have proficiency with the rapiers, daggers and hand crossbows. Superior Darkvision. Your darkvision has a radius of 10 feet. Cunning. You have proficiency in Deception, and gain advantage when using Stealth in the darkness.

Economy
The economy was widely varied for a time, but it became reasonable to create a standard rate of exchange. The two nations which influenced this the most were Galenor and Endria. Though many adopted the standard coinage of Endria which is shown below.

The Standard rate of Exchange 1 Gold Crown is the equivalent of 20 Silver Marks. And 1 Silver Mark is the equivalent of 20 Brass Pennies. The use of brass became increasingly popular as the use of copper became far too expensive and more difficult to make. Two additional coins were adopted from the Galenor City-states. The Silver Guilder, which is the equivalent of 4 Silver Marks and has become the "Common Coin" of mercantile business. And then you have the Copper Bar (which is rarely used), has the value of 4 Brass Pennies, as it can be split into four segments of value. Perhaps the most expensive form of coinage is the Platinum Star which was adopted from Kesh. Platinum seems far more common in these colder regions. And has the value of five Gold Crowns. Among the Landish folk, you can find Bronze being used as coinage. The Bronze Ring is valued at 10 brass pennies and is often carried on strings of thin leather for easy storage and counting.

In almost every case when people are giving a value of an item they list it in Brass Pennies.

Halflings
Halflings are a almost as prolific as humans, but they are a group of diminutive and resilient folk that live in rolling hills and plains. They are broken up into two distinct cultures, Way folk. A group of nomadic Halflings who have adopted the teachings and ways of the Ellian. And the Shire Folk, who live in the south eastern part of the realms. They are perhaps the most likeable race besides humans, charming and delightful in demeanor usually. Though the Way folk, are roguish in nature.

Starting Age/Life Span: Most Halflings reach the age of maturity by the time they reach 20 years of age. Their life span’s are slightly longer than human’s, and can range anywhere from 90 to 110 years of age. But there are reports that some Halflings might even reach the age of 130. Descriptions: Most Male Halflings range in size from 3’6 to 4’0” in height, while females are two inches shorter. Their physiques are perfectly proportioned to their size, and do not suffer the normal strength loss many would for their size. The are quick, silent, and light of feet however. Skin tones are distinctly Caucasian, but tend to have fair to light tan colorations. Hair is normally curly, and generally earthy in color. Brown, Black, Gold Blonde, and a smattering of strawberry blonde. While eye colors are very bright, ranging from hazel, green, and blue. Though brown is not unheard of. Social Class: Halflings live a very simple life, and do not own servants or slaves. Royalty is unheard of in Halfling society, since they prefer to have large bodied councils.

Half Elves
Half elves are the combination of a human, and elven parenting. Despite their popularity with almost every race out there, there is a measure of alienation because of their inability to fit it. Stuck between two worlds. Not long enough to live a full life by elven measure, and to long a life span to pass by most humans. Many live in what ever place their parents live in, learning those languages and cultural skills. Half Elves are an extremely rare occurance these days, but can more than likely happen among the Dark Elves and Wood Elves. Dark Elves almost always given up their children and put them in human settlements, while the wood elves are more likely to raise a child of mixed races.

Starting Age/Lifespan: Half elves reach maturity by the time they reach 18 for women, and 20 for men. Many half elves can live anywhere from 140 to 180 years of age, but there are reports of half elves living as much as 230 years of age. Description: Height ranges from 5’2” to 6’0” tall for most women, while men are three inches taller in comparison. Physical descriptions and colorations generally tend to range between their stock races, and generally tend to fit into each society rather well.

Humans.
Humans are the most prolific race known to exist in the world of Karmyth, though the shortest in lifespan compared to the other races. They make up for this with their pension for adaptability, and to live life to its fullest. More resilient and resolute than us today, they are used to hardships and labor. Depending of course on the culture with which a human has grown up in, humans are also quite popular and are able to get along well with all races regardless.

Starting Age/Lifespan: Most humans reach the age of maturity by the time they are 16, but this can vary from culture to culture. So anywhere from 14-18 is the usual starting age for most. Their life span’s are much shorter, and can life anywhere from 70 to 90 years in age. Though reports of rare humans having lived as great as 100, or 110 years of age are known to occur. Descriptions: Humans can have a wide variety of eye, hair, and skin tone variations depending on where they live. This also includes cultural influences as well. In the Western kingdoms, which most of games take place. Many humans are Caucasian in appearance, though skin tones can vary from pale to a deep tan or swarthy olive tone. Social Class Restrictions: Vary from Culture to Culture, but in general they can run the gamut of positions in society. Native Language: The native tongue of humans vary from culture to culture. Speed. 30'

-Humans of Endrian stock are tall, fair folk. With light blonde hair, and hazel eyes. Though, they can have light brown hair colors, and black is known in a rare few.

Descendants of the Landish folk, the Galen are a decadent folk living in feudal city states (each city having its own ruler). The borders of the Galen are constantly changing, since different city states are constantly battling for more land. Mercantile Trade, the raising of horses, and sailing , are some of the few things they are rather good at.

They have had to scratch their living in a normally harsh cold environment, and have done so to create a very resilient folk. Magic seems to flow through out the land, and is virtually innate within the people. Their society has turned into a Magiocracy, ruled by a council of great Arch Mages. They have pale complexions usually, though a fair tone or a light tan are possible. Hair is almost always dark in color.

The Hokar
The Hokar are a race of beings that tend to be slightly taller than men and broadly built with powerful muscles. They are often called green-skins by the other races as a derogatory term, even though the Hokar doesn't have green skin at all. Mostly because of their servant race which is actually the traditional goblin that most are familiar with. Hokar, Hob-goblin, or Orc, work more than fine for them. They are a militant species that is governed by the most powerful among them. They tend to be a very war-like species. Their territory is beyond the northernmost tip of the Khavarundin mountain range and often fights with the Landish and the Kesh along their borders. Native Language: HokarCapitol: Welkor

The Geb
The Geb live along the southern reaches of the Khavarundin mountain range, in a dry arid region that cuts off the nations of Rhond and Northern Galenor. The Geb are a strange mongrel species that are smiliar in appear to Hyena's or Jackals, but humanoid in appearance. They also seem to have a servant species like the Hokar, called Kobolds. If anything they are a chaotic species with no centralized government, they tend to cluster in large tribes that fight for territory. Native Language: GebbekCapitol: None

The Elder-Scrolls inspired me back in my early twenties, and I wanted to incorporate something like that into my own fantasy world. Originally my world has 16 months to the year, with 4 weeks that contained 8 days. It ended up being far too complex to keep track of, so I simplified it to our own world equivalents.

The first official calendar was created by a group of monks who studied the stars and measured the times. They created a twelve month year and correlated their significance to a person's life with the gods. The chart below lists not only the months but a specific constellation in the sky. Each month for simplicity sake has a seven-day week, with four weeks to every month. Every two months a day is added between the months to indicate significant seasonal holiday. Making the year measure 342 days.

The Second most important part of your Birthsign was how the moons of Karmyth affected your destiny. There are three moons that orbit about the orb of Karmyth in steady cycles. The first and closest Moon is called Myros, the second moon and next out is Undo, and the third moon which is farthest out is known as Kelis. If the moon Kelis was in prominence in the night sky, your Birth sign was assumed to be of minor influence. If the moon Undo was in prominence your Birthsign was considered to be a major influence in your life. And if Myros was in prominence your Birthsign was said to be of great influence upon your life.

The stronger your Birthsign Influence, the greater your destiny, and the more "special" you are. At least according to the Monks.

The World of Karmyth
The world of Karmyth is the idea for a game setting that has been in development ever since my early twenties. But I guess I am terrible at recording information, or structuring my thoughts all that well. Its main focus is on a less magical setting than the standard D&D game. I am not sure where to begin exactly, so I'll start with a run down on the main campaign setting and area.

Endria
Endria in the old tongue means "A bountiful land", and shows its beginnings in druidic lore. Endria is the typical western medieval kingdom, and also the largest considering its location as the center of trading between each and every other nation that surrounds it. To the east is the Endless sea, and to the west, the mountains of Khavarundin creates an almost wall to the barbarian lands beyond. It has your typical medieval Europe hierarchy, with a king and queen, and its religion is based on a duo-diety pantheon. The Queen is symbolized as the goddess of goodness and light. And The King is symbolized as the god of Justice and Righteousness. The Endrian culture is often seen as the most open minded of the cultures in the surrounding region. Capitol: TemmeckNative Language: Endrian

Kesh
Kesh is the nation to the north of Endria and expands into much colder regions that can often see snow 3 months out of the year almost consistently. Its is a harsh climate and creates a rugged people with a strong will, which is consistent with their naturally given talent for magical study. If one were to learn Magic, it's the colleges of Kesh one would go to. If you were to compare this culture to something from our own world, it would be something similar to the Russia. Naturally, their religious belief and hierarchy are based on magic use, Magiocratic in nature they worship Myrr, all father of magic. Capitol: StarlendoffNative Language: Keshlik

Rhond
The barbarian lands of Rhond are beyond the Khavarundin mountains to the west of Endria are home to a rugged men known as the Landish. Its native language is "Landish" and their culture is broken up into "Clans" instead of any one structured social order. They are a tall and robust people, and the land is wild and varied. Snowy pines to the north, rugged and grassy lands in the center of the region, and a sparsely vegetated region to the south. Their religion is broken up into four main deities broken up by element and season. A goddess of spring and water. A god of summer and fire. Deragor, A god of autumn and earth, and a goddess of winter and air. Capitol: None, but there are several prominant clans through out the region which tend to hold sway and power. Native Language: A root language of Endrian, known as Landish

The Galenor City-states
Galenor is located south of Rhond and Endria and is broken up into two distinct regions, a northern region, and a southern region. The Northern regions of Galenor seem to be more structured than its neighbors to the south. The northern regions seem to be more decadent in nature and it relates to the nature of the people that live there. One of the most predominant regions of the Northern states is Shar a female dominant society. In the southern region, you find a mishmash of city states, but one of the most southern cities is known for its decadent practice and worship of a sexually based goddess known as Horlia. In either case, one could compare the people in our real world to the Spanish and french people. They have a large maritime trade with far off regions, such as El'shiema, the deserts of Nueva, and the jungles of Jothn. But their greatest trade is of silk and they are famous for their ability to breed and train horses. If there is any standard religion in this chaotic region, the most popular are Deim, god of business, trade, and gold. And Sheilah, mistress of luck. Capitol: NoneNative Language: Galen

The Ellian Plains
The Ellian plains are a small region to the south, located between Endria and the Galenor city-states. Home to a nomadic people called the Waylandee. A short and diminutive people half the size of humans often called halflings which they often consider a derogatory term. They are similar in our own world to the wandering gypsy people. If they worship any deities it is often to the goddess Ananna, goddess of safety and travel. The Waylandee are a very open minded culture, but also distrusted at large as being mischievous and trouble makers. You can often find Half-elves among the waylandee or anyone else who has decided to live a wandering and carefree life. Though a rigorous life to say the least. Capitol: NoneNative Language: None, but generally known both Galen and Endrian.

The Khavarundin Mountains
The Khavarundin mountains are home to a somewhat reclusive people called the Duwar, they are slightly taller than the Waylandee but just as broad as human men. Their skin tones are ruddier than normal folk which some often think comes from being one that lives under the earth, in what they call a "Hold". They are a proud, solemn and stern lot, and often considered stubborn to the bitter end. They also are shrewd business men and seem to have a gift for craftsmanship. For they possess deft fingers and keen eyesight. Their social structure is clannish in nature, and if they worship anything they have a deep reverence for the past and their ancestors. The Duwar are known for their secret fires from which they create Dwarf-Iron, and Adamantium which is said to be the strongest metal known to exist. Capitol: None, But there are great Dwarven Houses that create a council of leaders. Native Language: Runic

Endria is one big melting pot, and is open to just about anyone as long as they follow the laws of the land. It's neighbor Kesh, though somewhat solitary in nature, they share much in trade with. The dwarves will get along with anyone really, as long as they can make a buck from the deal. The men of rhond prefer dealing with their own, though the fact they are pretty much surrounded by the Hokar and Geb on either side, they have to keep friendly with the dwarves and the men of galen and Endria.

Perhaps the one neighbor everyone watches out for are the city states of galenor. The southern region is a chaotic mesh, as many baron kings vie for control and power in their own regions of state. And the Ellian are somewhat welcomed by all, though grudgingly as their wandering nature many think of them as rogues and thieves.
